Orange Coconut Bundt Cake #SundaySupper
Spring is in the air, can you feel it? I can and I wanted to bake a special cake to celebrate the change of season. Orange Coconut Bundt Cake is one that will cause you to spring into action and start baking.
Even though the cake has a cup of sour cream, it is not a heavy pound cake. It’s quite the contrary and wait until you taste the topping. The orange zest in the glaze adds a wonderful punch of flavor to the top of the cake.
I took this cake with me to Quantum House (like a Ronald McDonald house) this week and everyone loved it. Samuel did not get to taste the cake before we went. As Samuel was eating a piece I told him that we would be leaving once he was finished to which he responded, “NO, not until I get another piece of cake!”
Do you know what else this Orange Coconut Bundt Cake has in it? EGGS! Yup, the humble egg is what my Sunday Supper Movement family is honoring today with all sorts of fabulous recipes. So be sure to check them all out because the choices are egg-ceptional!

- Orange coconut cake:
- 2¾ cups (13.15 ounces) all purpose flour
- ½ teaspoon (.05 ounces) baking soda
- 14 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
- 2¼ cups (16.75 ounces) sugar
- 1½ teaspoons (.15 ounces) orange zest, one orange
- 4 eggs
- 1 cup (8.80 ounces) sour cream
- ¼ cup (2.50 ounces) orange juice
- 1¾ cups (4.65 ounces) shredded sweetened coconut flakes
- Orange glaze:
- 1½ - 2½ cups (7.20 - 12 ounces) confectioners sugar, depending on thickness desired
- ¼ cup (2.50 ounces) orange juice
- 1½ teaspoons (.15 ounces) orange zest, one orange
- For the orange coconut cake:
- Preheat the oven to 350°. Butter a 10 - 12 cup bundt pan and set aside.
- Whisk together the flour and baking soda. Set aside.
- Place the butter, sugar and orange zest into a large mixing bowl. Beat until light and fluffy, about three minutes. Add the eggs, one at a time. Blend in half of the dry ingredients.
- Mix in the sour cream and orange juice. Add the remaining dry ingredients followed by the coconut flakes.
- Spoon the batter into the prepared pan.
- Bake at 350° for 55 minutes. Remove from the oven and cool in the pan for 10 minutes.
- Cover the top of the pan with a cooling rack. Turn upside down and gently remove the pan. Allow the cake to cool completely before glazing.
- For the glaze:
- Combine all of the ingredients into a small bowl. Stir until smooth.
- Transfer the glaze to a plastic freezer bag. Seal the bag and cut off one of the bottom corners.
- Place the cooling rack over a piece of wax paper. Drizzle the glaze over the top of the cake so that it drips down the sides.

This looks yummy and I shall prepare just as you have. I’m, also, curious to know if the same recipe can be made in the Bundtlet pans that I bought through Desserts Required and if so, can you please tell me how long I should bake them? Thanks.
Mary,
Great question! The batter can be made in a bundtlette pan. Follow the directions listed on the packaging for baking time and temperature.
